this is just interesting. (Wisconsin Retirement Fund is the 9th largest in the country)
In recent years, the handling of the nations largest public pension fund has caused growing alarm among a group of retirees who rely on it.
They have sought an outside audit of Californias $530 billion pension fund, known as the California Public Employees Retirement System, or CalPERS. They have also tried to persuade legislators to install an inspector general to monitor its operations.
Both efforts went nowhere. Now, theyve decided to take matters into their own hands.
The retired public employees are taking the unusual step of hiring a forensic pension investigator to provide clarity on the funds investments, the high fees it is paying to big Wall Street firms and its lagging performance.

But. In spite of a Dem Gove, GQP have been in charge for many years, currently a super majority after one really big asshole switched to GQO right after election, and these NC GQO are some of the best liars and thieves on the planet.
The voters are fed Fox sewage 24/7. Even state retirees that depend on their honesty(🤑🤮
Any massive fund sitting there in any accounts, for us that pay into it, is a Buffett for these thieves. And we can just die and rot in their Christian eyes.

He is blessing these thrives and murderers, that will never see conferences.
